ReutersWTO countries to reboot dispute reform negotiations
Countries in the World Trade Organization are resuming stalled negotiations on fixing its dispute settlement system by the end of this year, a document showed on Friday, after they overcame difficulties in choosing a chief negotiator. Ambassador Usha Dwarka-Canabady from Mauritius, a career diplomat, was announced as chief negotiator this month after at least three other ambassadors turned the role down, trade sources said. The previous facilitator, Marco Molina from Guatemala, was abruptly dismissed by his government in February despite widespread praise for his approach which, unlike other WTO talks, sought to reduce haggling by encouraging co-authorship of new rules.

Fed's preferred inflation gauge shows price pressures stayed elevated last month
WASHINGTON (AP) — A measure of inflation closely tracked by the Federal Reserve remained uncomfortably high in March, likely reinforcing the Fed's reluctance to cut interest rates anytime soon and underscoring a burden for President Joe Biden's re-election bid. Friday's report from the government showed that prices rose 0.3% from February to March, the same as in the previous month. It was the third straight month that the index has run at a pace faster than is consistent with the Fed's 2% infla

In rare German boardroom fight, broker CEO exits with jab at founder
A rare public boardroom dispute in Germany escalated on Friday, with the outgoing CEO of a major online broker criticising a company founder who had publicly campaigned against him. Frank Niehage, the CEO of broker FlatexDegiro, this week suddenly announced he would leave after 10 years at the helm of the firm that operates in 16 countries with 2.7 million customers. The departure followed sharp criticism from the company's founder and major shareholder, Bernd Foertsch, who told a business magazine last month he would vote against Niehage and the company's chair at an upcoming shareholder meeting due to strategic mistakes, like "sleeping through a cryptocurrency boom".
